Motor yacht enthusiasts from across the country are already flocking to Swanwick Marina in Southampton for a pre-season glimpse of the best of British boat building at the first British Motor Yacht Show opens today, and runs until Sunday (19th May 2013).
In an unprecedented move, the biggest names in UK motor yachting – Sunseeker, Princess and Fairline – have joined forces to launch the exciting new boat show between 17th and 19th May 2013, proudly displaying the cream of the country’s boatbuilding expertise.
Spencer Brown, Sales Manager at nearby Sunseeker Poole, said “As the Sunseeker representatives on the south coast we see this collaborative show as a very positive asset and benefit to our customer who can see rival models from all three major manufacturers in warm friendly marina environment. The show is about boats and leisure boating and this event enables us to show the best of the best!”
James Lumley, Manager at Sunseeker Southampton, who are based at the premier Swanwick Marina said: “We have been delighted with the turn out of clients arriving today and we’re expecting even more to visit us throughout the weekend.”
Sunseeker Southampton has joined a select group of other British boat manufacturers to showcase a selection of stunning yachts, including a number which will be in the glistening waters of the River Hamble. It’s expected that more than 1,000 boat lovers will visit the free show over the weekend to make the most of the opportunity to get up close and personal to the latest yachts before the traditional show season starts.
Sunseeker is leading the way with its superb San Remo luxury sports cruiser which launched earlier this year and resurrects the popular marque from Sunseeker’s long and rich history. With stunning looks, agile handling and a spacious interior, this new performance cruiser epitomizes everything the San Remo was adored for in the 1980s, whilst bringing it right up to date.
Also in attendance are three members of the chic and sleek Predator range (the Predator 53, 68 and 80), in addition to the luxurious Manhattan 73, guaranteed to impress all who attend.
Christopher Head, Sales Director, Sunseeker London. “The British Motor Yacht Show is a great idea to help support the marine industry and offer a great array of interest into boating for our clients. The South Coast of the UK is a perfect opportunity for us to showcase as a perfect UK boating destination and working with other market leaders.”
